1.-THE Saloon Has No Rights

The time has not come when a Just and
wholesome law will be permitted to remain
as a dead letter; but the time is fast ap-
preaching when the insolence and lawless-
ness of the saloon will be effectually sup
pressed. A sentiment in that direction Is
rapidly developing, aud nothing has done
more to quicken it than the saloon itself. Its
disregard for law, its arrogance, its lobbying
in legislative halls, and debating to conven-
tions and caucuses have done more than all
else to create sentiment against it that will
control it or suppress, it altogether. 1t should
consider that it has no claim on the public at
all 1t is no part of legitimate industry; it
has no place in commercial prosperity 1t
exists in opposition to all principles of indus
trial and commercial interests The people
have the highest right recognizable to sup
press it entirely-the right of self protection.
For the saloon to talk of its rights is foolish
1t has none. 1t exists only by siIfferance, and
there is nothing on which it can base a claim
forprotection. 1t is an industry that weak
ems everything it touches, one that adds moth
ing to individual or national prosperity, but
is heavy burden upon both. The revenue

Proofs of the talent of Architect Mix,
of Milwaukee, as a designer of business
blocks and fine houses are scattered far
and wide throughout the country. The
Twin Cities have each their share, and
in st. Paul the GLOBE building is his
finest conception.
t. In it are embodied all that goes to
make STRUCTURE perfect in every de-
tail, and it is only man of the ability
of Architect Mix that could accomplish
these results in so thorough a manner.
lie is representative member of the
distinctive American School of Archi-
lecture" and has solved the complex
problems of how bestto utilize the min
imum of building space with the maxi
mum of accommodation and beauty of
design. He makes u specially of fire
proof Office buildings, and shows rare
artistic taste in their construction. In
the GLOBE building he has used pressed
brick, terra Gotta and brown sandstone
III such manner as to produce an i'm
posing effect and to make it by far the
finest commercial editice in the West.
His able assistant, c. ID. Crane, super
lntentent of construction, who had su-

too much praise for the able manner in
which he carried out ail the plans and
specifications, his untiring zeal and

winning for him the good will of all the

Encaustic Tilin~.

This art appears to have had its origin
during the latter the part of Twelfth
century, and grew into great popularity
in the Thirteenth, curious examples
of encauStic tiles being found in
Som0 of the old churches and chapels
of mediaeval England. and remains of
.kilnS with tiles in different stages of
manufacture have been eXcavated near
Bausley and Lynn. In England and
Normandy the best examples of these
ancient tiles are found, but in every in
stance they were used for pavementS in
ecclesiastical ediiiceS. The modern re-
vivai of this art dates from 1880. and the
manufacture of these beautiful floor
coverings has tlourished ever since, ow-
ing to their great popularity. For the
last score of years several large con-
Germs iii this country have devoted their
energies to the production of these
artistic c0nceitS, and their products
rival, both i'll c0loring and design, those
OF English make. The only iirim in the
Northwest, who have had all the largc
contracts for Tiled floors, is that of W.
They are dealers in tiles of every de-
Scription, and make speciality of floor
ing tiles and enamel and relief tiles for
hearthS and tire-places.
Their latest contract was the work
done in the GLOBE building, and this is
admired and commented on by every
one who enters the building. All the
first floor, the veStibules and the halls
on the upper floors were tiled by this
firm, the tiles used being encauStic,
vitritied and German mosaic specially
imported for this work.
The firm has been in existence three
years, and well deserves the rapid
strides they have made in this city.
